A aranth one he in, into. renal he. entree Zhntt ill/tom it may concern:

Be it known that l, hnann M. Gem's, a citizen of the United States, iding at Lents, in the county of Multnomah and 55 State oi Gregon, have invented a new and useful Stove, of which the tollowg is e specification. r

lhis invention relates to stoves, oneoi its objects being to provide a folding, hydrom carbon cook stove particularly desied for use by tourists,eampers and the like.

A further object Is to provide a stove of this cheracter which canhe folded into a compact hody which is easy to and can e conveniently stored in a sine emif? i A further ohgect'is to provide a stove and "claimed, it being understood thatchanges in the precise embodiment oi the 8@) invention herein disclosed, can he made within the scope of what is claimed, witlr out departing from the spirit of the invenlo the accompanying drawings the pro 5 5, terred tor'ot the invention have heen shown.

in said dwingsz -Figure 1 is a tire view of the stove folded. Fig. 2 is a a pl'view thereof opened out and ready for he use, the osition oi the fuel tank when not.

in use, eing indicated by dotted lines. Fig. 8 is a section on lined-B, Fig. 2. Fig. d is a view similar to Fig. 3, but owa modified to of stove. l 'eierring to the figures by characters of reference 1 and 2 designate trays connected by hinges 8 whereby the said trays can told together to form a box-like structure, as own. in Fig. 1. Each of these have 1s an preferably provided with apertures d wherehyfresh air may circulate freely thrpugh the trays while the stove is in use. Aiming; with the him on 3 is a fuel conducting pipe 5 from which extend pipes 6 and 7,..one of these pi es, 6, being swiveled on and communicating withthe pipe 5, whilethe other either or both of the valves 9 on pipe, 7, is integral with and communicates with the pipe 5. Consequently, the two pipes 63 and 7 are free to swing relative to each other without cutting ofi communication. The pipe Y extends downwardly into tray 1 and along the bottom of said tray and is provided, at its discharge end, with a humor 8. Fuel supplied to this burner is under the control of a valve 9., the stem .10 of which extends through one wall of the tray and is provided with a handle 11. The pipe 6 is extended downwardly into the tray 2 and along the bottom thereof to a burner 12 end connnuni'cating with this pipe 6 we sully pipe 13 extending; to that end of the tray 2 remote from the' tray .1 and thence upwardly where it is swiveled to a crook pipe 1% opening into e fuel tank 15. The burner 12 has a valve 16, the stem 17 of whiehextends through one wall of the hay 2 and has a handle 18. Tank 15 has an air Eurnp 19 connected thereto whereby air can e forced under pressure into'the tank. The tank inay be provided with the usual filling ng vim. dosed by means of a sag 2d.

he parts are so proportioned that when the stove is collapsed, the crook pipe "1% will swing about its swivel 21, thus to brin the tank 15 into the tray 2 where it wil rest upon the bottom of the tray as shown by dotted lines in Fig. 2. With the tank thus positioned, the two trays l and 2 can he swung together as shown in Figi. 1, the

es 6 and folding toward one "it is desired to use the stove, the two traysl and 2 are swung outwardly to open position, upwardly and outwardly to the position shown in Fig. 3. After the fuel within the tank 15 has n placed under ressure, "16 can be opened, thus admitting fuel to the burners whereupon the stove can be used for cooking gurgoses. i

lnstea 0 providing a separately movable fuel tank as shown in Fi s. 2 and 3,

other.

r which the tank 15 is swung a tank 22 can he feed in the hottoinportion of tray 23which corresponds with-tray '2, there being preferably an asbestos covering 2% upon the top of tank 22. This tank has an air pump 25 similar to the pump 19 and a. pipe 26 extends from the tank-Q22 to the pipe 5 in the same manner as does the pipe 6. The burner 2,? is mounted on the top of the new 22 & new. di-

v rectiy with-the interior of the tank, as.

permit the removal of the said parts from r the trays, it is necessary that the stems 10 and 17 e removable from the valves. These stems can be made detachable in anydee sired manner. As shown in Fig. 3, a drip ca 28 can be arranged under each burner.
